Look at me, I’ve got a funny red nose,
An enormous red nose, look at me,
And what do you see ?
Look at me, I’ve got a smile on my face,
A painted smile on my face, look at me,
And what do you see ?
Look, Mummy, look at the clown
See how he laughs, and how he falls down,
But look, Mummy, can you tell me why,
He makes me laugh with a tear in his eye ?
Look at me, all dressed up making them grin
Backstage there's a bottle of gin, look at me,
I hope that I'm making you laugh ?
Look behind the mask if you can,
Behind it you’ll find a lonely man
Bells on his fingers, bells on his toes,
A broken man in ridiculous clothes
Look at me, many's the tear I have shed
Just wishin' that I could be dead, look at me,
And what do you see ?
It's on with the make-up and time to start,
A clown who can´t laugh
Because someone has broken his heart,
Look at me - ah look at me
Ah, I've got a smile on my face...
Got a nose, red nose... Look at me !
